, '87 '87 '87 '87 '87 '87 f Q Hagen Blackenburg listens closely to the instructions given for ,the next ab. Hagen is a foreign exchange student. German exchan t was their first day of high school, they were filled with excitement and en- thusiasm. lt was their first time being so far away from home for such a long period of time. They were two foreign ex- change students from the same country in the same grade level. Georg Duesberg and Hagen Blankenburg were exchange students from West Germany. American students have more freedom to do things than kids in Germany. For ex- ample, over here you can drive when you're 16 years old, but in Germany you have to be 18, Georg and Hagen both said. After a couple of months in school they have seen that American schools do not differ that much from German schools. In Germany the teachers expect more from them than in America. In Ger- many tests were harder, and they did not take them that often like over here. Tests are used as a sort of punishment when the teacher doesn't think the class is do- ing their best, Georg said.

'87 '87 ' '87 '87 '87 :spite the hours of practice, Angie athen enjoys scuba diving as her vorite hobby. She can be found ading about her hobby. Q 9 4 World of ater was sitting on the edge of the boat waiting my turn in line. This was my first dive and I was filled with excitement and enthusiasm. SPLASH!!! The cool water stung my face as I entered. Once I was down there for a couple of minutes I was beginning to feel fabulous and confident about my first dive. It was like being back in the practice pool, except there were living things all around me instead of concrete. Angie Wathen would pro- bably never forget the thrills and sensations of her first dive. She became interested in scuba diving when she was a young child. I've always dreamed of exploring the underwater world, she said. Learning how to scuba dive took hours of practice. It took her six weeks, two times a week. Each class was four hours long. As a beginner, she had to learn how to use a mask which protected her eyes, a snorkle and fins. Scuba diving has made one of her dreams a reality.
